Mama Africa

The late, great Miriam Makeba is an African icon and was one of the most stylish with her signature leopard print, body skimming cocktail dresses, her regal headwraps and her traditional attire. She embodied a truly natural, African beauty showing us that it is possible to be beautiful with short afro hair and minimal makeup. She was an activist, standing up for her beliefs and fighting for freedom. Truly fierce!!
